View 7 RepliesProfessional :: TLF Text Direction - Not Displaying The Text Icon Cursor And Don't Allow To Insert Text Inside
Aug 28, 2011When I create a TLF text area that is editable at runtime (which means that it can get a user input at runtime) I set the text direction to the 'right-to-left' definition in both the 'container and flow' and the 'paragraph' sections and set the language for Arabic or Hebrew at the 'locale' setting. I also set the text alignment to the 'align to start' mode. Now at runtime there's a stange thing. When I try to click with the mouse cursor on the editable TLF text-box, it's not displaying the text icon cursor and don't allow me to insert text inside.
But when I move my mouse cursor over the right side of the editable TLF text box, it change his appearance to the familiar text cursor which indicate that if you click here you will be able to insert text input inside. So my problem is how can I make it that only when I will hover over the TLF text box itself, the mouse cursor will be changed to text cursor icon and when I will hover beside its right side, it will remain at the normal cursor mode.

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Editing The Input Text?
Aug 6, 2009I have an input text box that outputs a message to an ecard within the same flash file. I would like the user to be able to preview the card containing their message and then have the option to edit their message if they wish. Sounds as simple as going back to the frame containing the input text box and editing the message, but when I go back the input box is empty.
I have tried continuing the input box frames and action script throughout to see if the text is retained (hidden behind the actual card). It is until I try to go back and edit. Again the text box is empty.
ActionScript 3.0 :: Editing Text In TextField
Jun 5, 2009Without getting too complicated, imagine just a simple Static textField you created in flash and you filled it in with a paragraph of text.
Code:
simpleText.text = "here is my paragraph and this is fun and the dog ran far but it did not eat the paper with the paragraph and run-on sentences are nice! What if I did not want the word "paragraph" to show up within the textField? What is the easiest way to search for the word "paragraph" and to simply remove it? Would it be to change it to a String, and then search the string, and then remove it, and then convert it back to a textField?
ActionScript 1/2 :: Client Editing Of Flash Text?
May 13, 2009What's the best way to enable a client to edit text in a Flash-only site? I'm not talking about throughout the site, just selected text blocks. I could easily fill them from XML files and provide a file upload facility, but most clients will want something more friendly. I could copy the text to a TextArea for editing within the site and update the text from that but I think I'd end up writing my own wordprocessing software to make it look friendly. What do others do? I don't want to re-invent the wheel!

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Editing Flash Application Text Content?
May 31, 2011I'm creating a Flash presentation, and the user wants to be able to change the text on any screen from Flash itself. This was my original my idea (I don't have much experience in AS):
1 - Put all the text in a text file (XML or plain).
2 - Make AS read the text and fill in the text fields in the Flash presentation.
3 - When it's needed to change the text content, execute the Flash presentation with a parameter that will tell AS to show all the fields as INPUT.
4 - Save the new text in the text file via PHP.
But I have been asked if it would be possible to avoid the use of a text file (and the server connection with PHP) and change the swf text content directly with AS. Is this possible? I have been googling it but with no success. I have the idea that this wouldn't be possible but i don't know all the possibilites in the Flash environment.

ActionScript 2.0 :: Input Text Box To Dynamic Text Output - No Cursor?
Apr 28, 2011you have the option to type your name in a text box and click "save". Doing so will apply you score data (time elapsed, date, correct answers and percentage) along with the name you typed in, and output in a form, that you can save or print off, or whatever. The problem is, the input text box will not let you type in it. If you mouse over it, the mouse stays a pointer, you don't get the text tool. If you click on it, the cursor appears for a split second after you release the mouse button, but you cannot type anything in it.This is the actionscript for the output form:
Actionscript Code:
//function saveRecord(record:String, field:String, now:Object, score:Object):Void { var so:Object = Object(SharedObject.getLocal(record)); so.data.record = record;so.data.field = field; so.data.now
[code]....
Everything looks in order, all the variables are correct, the input text box is set to input - it just wont let you write in it. I even went into a blank project, created a rudimentary setup, with an input text box one frame and a button, with the simple script:
Actionscript Code:
outputName=inputName;
Setup a button that moved to the frame with the designated output dynamic text box, tested it, it worked. So I tried moving the input box to the program - will not work.... It does the same thing, cannot type in it. I tried moving the text box to a different frame, used the simpler script to output, made no difference.
